Tried To Keep The Light On

Baby, you know I'm afraid of the dark.
It started when I tore us apart.
Baby trust me I said,
that I'd take a picture, 'cause it'd last longer,
but I can honestly tell you that it's not enough,
from all the wrong things I've said!

Tell me when you're ready,
when you'll see me in your dreams, again.
Tried to fix it,
but it's still broken.
And when I heard the people whispering and talking and flirting,
I can tell you I was jealous!

The dark was making me feel so afraid,
and baby I probably need you here to stay.
And sing a lullaby,
so I'd be comforted and tell you what's on my mind.
Just trust me.

The Hollywood lights were flickering.
Maybe there is something connected between you and me.
So I must've hushed up,
and made you talk for even just a little while.
'Cause I tried to keep the light on.

It's the first day of senior year, and yes I'm nervous.
Terrifying cause I didn't get to keep you.
You weren't there and I was questioning myself,
maybe it's something 'bout you and me, again!

I loved the feeling that you left me,
and when you say something so good to me.
Tried to keep the light on so that there are still sparks...<3
